I need to do a happiness list again soon. Moving and exhaustion has made me a negative nancy. I still need to do my new years resolutions too- I seem to be behind on everything! Eeek!
ReplyDeleteOh, moving's a horror! Are you settled in yet? At least you can have at top of list "I don't have to pack any boxes" (although unpacking...)
ReplyDeleteWe should have everything moved in tonight, then goes cleaning and unpacking. I did get there the other day and began slowly organizin the new kitchen and got measurements down for where I'm going to do a pegboard wall for pans like Julia Child since I don't have anywhere for a pan rack and keeping pans in cupboards means for a lot of clutter. However, there's only so much a prego can do with moving before I need assistance so it's been slow going while Nolan is at work and Eva's at home. This week Nolan has afew days off and Eva goes back to school so I should get loads more done. Sigh, I'm not moving again until we leave this town. Period.
